Full Circles Photo

Photographer’s Note

These women sell their products in the streets of Hoi An, going from one shop to the next and to restaurants as well.

They are the first encounters you will see in the streets at early morning hours, after they have loaded their baskets at the market.

Hello André,

Effectivement, une collection de cercle que seul l'oeil entrainé du photographe a pu capter dans une belle composition. Les éléments rouges (des fruits?) du panier de gauche répondent bien au grand cercle rouge sur la façade.
Un joli portrait plein de fraîcheur.

A+

Hello Andre,
great capture of an interesting daily-life moment. The woman selling her products is very well captured in a perfect composition. Colours and sharpness are really superb. Congratulations, TFS.
Best regards

Great title and she would be totally oblivious to it. Even the produce in the baskets is spherical, so almost circles too. Well exposed street shot with plenty of detail of her face under the shade of the hat.

Salut André,
Quel bonheur de retrouver ton coup d'œil et ton cadrage élégant! Je me fais rare par manque d'envie mais c'est bon parfois d'espacer ses posts.
Amitiés
Marc

Hello Andre,
It seems that you were at a marginally lower point of view than she was to get her face nicely and completely under the hat. There are a lot of round elements indeed and your timing was great to be able to takke advantage of that special round window behind her. Good perspective lines with the diagonal of the building and the diagonal of the pole which she carries, meaning that you were at the perfect angle to get his instead of just flat from the side or head on, these diagonals create a much more dynamic shot.
And in conclusion you have great clarity and detail throughout the entire shot.

Salut Andre
C'est sur que ca fait beaucoup de ronds dans une image, meme la dame elle a mis son chapeau rond (pas breton) pour en rajouter, bien vu et cadre
Bonne journee JY

Bonjour Andre,

Great shot, with a masterly title. This could be used as a educational game picture: count the circles! Thanks for sharing this one.

Il fallait voir ces différents cercles (même l'ombre s'y est mise) et les exploiter photographiquement de si belle façon. Très bonne composition et super coup d'œil.
Amitiés

Hello Andre!
Here I am again and to comment on a kind of picture I'm not used to take (maybe lack of talent in this area)! Well, I think you do so many excellent works in this theme and this one is no different!
Sharpness, exposure and colors are very good!
The naturality the person is in this image is what mostly attracts me (and that's what I think I wouldn't know how to do... to take a picture of someone without having him/her noticing me, looking at me and have the not natural appearance)!
TFS - congratulations!
Best regards,
Neyvan

Hello Andre,

The title for this picture is very cleverly selected. I like it a lot along with the shot itself and I have to admire the clarity of the shot and the composition.

Thanks for sharing

HeyA: POV is everything here - fine dynamics and technical specifics - always a pleasure to stop in. More later, c
